Discover Restaurants offering the best Pub food in Dominical, Province of Puntarenas, Costa Rica. Surf, dive, snorkel, beach comb, horseback ride, bicycle, or relax in a hammock in Dominical. Take a stress-relieving yoga class at Bamboo YogaPlay. Enjoy beach restaurants serving up everything from East Indian curries and Italian pastas and pizzas to local gallo pinto and shots of anise-infused sugarcane liquor. Savor lonely beaches populated by pelicans, frigate birds, brown boobies, and hardy surfers here for the waves and good beachfront food at reasonable prices. When you’ve caught up on your sleep and feel relaxed, take the family on a hike to the double-cascade waterfall at Nauyaca. Perhaps the family would be up for a horseback gallop on the beach, or a trot to a smaller waterfall like Pazo Azul, whose plunge pool is popular with local kids. There is always boogie boarding at Playa Dominicalito. Or beachcombing and dolphin-watching at Playa Dominical. Guided bird-watching, and mangrove estuary and rainforest tours are always educational. Charter a fishing boat. Catch and release big sailfish like marlin in the deep sea, or keep some tasty dinner fish like red snapper, yellowfin tuna, snook, wahoo, and dorado. In Marino Bellena National Park, humpback whales migrate south towards Dominical to escape the Arctic cold. December to April is the humpback whale mating season in Ballena (Whale) Marine National Park. May to November is the nesting season, when Olive Ridley and Hawksbill turtles do their nocturnal egg-laying on the beaches. Low tide beach combing walks can take you out to Punta Uvita Tombolo island. Snorkel, dive, and explore mangrove habitats. Or just sit with the family on the gold and white sands watching green marine iguanas sunbathe between dives into the rocks and corals to feed on marine algae.

6. Rum Bar
Reviewed By DiscoUnicorns
We arrived to Dominical very late due to flight delays and all of our fave restaurants were closed. We were starving and exhausted. One of the locals told us that Rum Bar was now serving food. If you've been to Dominical before, you know this place as a bar right on the entrance to the main street. Being exhausted and tired, we wondered in seeking quite literally anything to eat. To our surprise, we were greeted by a super nice guy behind the food counter who made me a custom veggie quesadilla - which was great. My husband got the chicken tacos and he said they were "really good and fresh"( and he is a tough critic ). He also made us the best homemade french fries Ive had in a long time. Remember, its a bar. There is no atmosphere except the bar and pool tables. There are places to sit both inside and out. Its not fancy and there is no table service ( you order at the counter ) but we were happily surprised by the level of food and I would go back for the french fries alone.

Very casual atmosphere with a pool table and a foosball table. Wasn't very crowded when my boyfriend & I were there, but the food was pretty good - the nachos were GREAT.

If you plan on traveling to CR in the Dominical/Uvita area, this is the place to stay- you will find that unless you speak fluent Spanish, its somewhat awkward to communicate- but NOT here, this is one of the few places in Dominical that is predominantly English speaking. Jo the Owner is the best! The Bar Staff to the Room Maids everyone here is so friendly and make you feel welcome right away! Beautiful Location between the River and Ocean - plenty of bird watching** We saw a Macaw in flight* -- This is the Life! Pura Vida -

If you can make ride up the mountain then its a great experience for atmosphere and food. We went three times during our stay and the servers took care of us each time. Very friendly and accommodating. I would recommend the Honey BBQ chicken fingers. Kids loved the pizza and burgers. Great views as well of the coastline.
